rev video

if you have a youtube video please sub and leave a comment

i thought the cherrybomb extreme was to raspy and popping , this flowmaster sounds deep and mean, sounds more of a v8 now and i kinda hear more of a lope with my 1.7 harland sharps. throttle resonce seems better too.

I don't know how it could sound much different, the FM10 is a clone of the CB Extreme, although they are made of different materials.

Have a buddy with a Z71 who went the other way, from a FM10 to a CB Extreme and nobody could tell he changed anything.

Is the ONLY difference the muffler???

Although I have heard two different 4.7 Rams with the CB Extreme, one a side exit right behind the cab and the other a dual out the rear and the side exit one does pop a LOT where the dual rear truck never pops and is MUCH deeper, so I guess differences in piping, location, etc. can make a big difference...

Between me and my friends we have done DOZENS of exhaust systems on trucks, and the thickness of the pipe, location of the muffler within the tubing, and length/size of tubing makes almost as big of a difference as a muffler alone.
